In the occasion, Tsukihi has Nadeko confess that she always was in love with her brother and realizes that the reason why she still harbors feelings for him it is because it makes easy for her to reject all other boys who ask her out, as she believes that having a proper relationship is too bothersome. Following that, Tsukihi then grabs a pair of scissors and cuts out Nadeko’s bangs, claiming that she is doing her a favour. Later at school, Nadeko’s homeroom teacher keeps pressuring her to help him restore the mood along her classmates, but when she tries to ditch him out as usual, she realizes that without her bangs, her face is fully exposed, preventing her from hiding her true feelings and suddenly, she vents out her anger at him for pushing all his work on her and following that, she lashes out at her classmates for refusing to make amends with each other after the charms incident. After school, Kuchinawa reveals that Nadeko’s sudden change of behavior is because his presence made her show her true feelings which she usually keeps repressed and claims that he discovered that what he wants Nadeko to seek for him is hidden in Koyomi’s house. Nadeko then sneaks there and searches Koyomi’s room until she finds a talisman and Kuchinawa, revealing that it is what he was looking for, asks her if she has any wish he could grant her as an act of gratitude.

化物語2009年

第 1 話

After returning from his trip through time, Koyomi comes back home and meets Mayoi, finally returning her backpack. They suddenly come across a mysterious being that starts chasing them down. The two manage to escape when they meet Yotsugi who flies away with them to safety. After stealing a kiss from Koyomi to repay for her help, Yotsugi flees, leaving Koyomi at the mercy of a furious Shinobu that appears soon after and to calm her down, Koyomi kisses her too. With Mayoi still unconscious from their predicament, Koyomi inquires Shinobu about the “darkness” entity they saw and she claims that she had seen it before during a trip to Japan 400 years before. She also claims that it will cause the destruction of the entire city if nothing is done about it. 

第 2 話

Shinobu reveals that during her first visit to Japan, 400 years ago, she saved the local people from a severe drought by accident and was revered as a goddess by them. She then spent the next years living as a goddess in Japan until all the villagers started disappearing mysteriously, until only Shinobu and a demon hunter she befriended remained. Soon after, the same being that Koyomi met attacked them and Shinobu barely escaped alive, taking with her the demon hunter’s hand by accident, which she used to revive him as a servant of hers just like Koyomi. However, the man blamed her for all that happened and unable to reason with him, Shinobu watched him committing suicide by exposing himself to the sunlight. Since then Shinobu never returned to Japan until six months ago, when she and Koyomi first met. 

第 3 話

After Shinobu tells Koyomi her story, they realize that Yotsugi was overhearing their entire conversation and after Mayoi awakens, they start discussing ways to deal with the darkness being before it appears before them. Koyomi, Mayoi and Yotsugi manage to escape again, but Koyomi is knocked out cold by the shock of Yotsugi’s jumping just to awaken several hours later and learn that they unwillingly left Shinobu behind. As Koyomi’s vampire powers had not disappeared yet, they conclude that Shinobu is still alive but with Koyomi’s powers weakening, it means that they have to find her before she is killed for good. Having no clue about what to do, they decide to contact Izuko Gaen who might provide some advice and when they decide to take shelter in a house, Izuko herself opens the door for them, much to their surprise. 

第 4 話

In exchange for her help, Gaen requests three tasks from Koyomi, all being connected to Suruga Kanbaru, formerly known as Suruga Gaen. Izuko reveals herself as her aunt, but she doesn’t want to be introduced to her as one to spare Suruga’s feelings. When Koyomi accepts, she shows the darkness’ true motive—it is a manifestation of the natural order, and means to destroy apparitions not behaving as they should—in this case, not Shinobu, but Mayoi. She exposes Mayoi as a “ghost of a ghost”, who should have passed on on Mother’s Day, when she finally found her way home; she also stopped leading people astray, neglecting her duty as a lost cow. Gaen leaves to allow Koyomi and Mayoi to process this, and Mayoi realizes she has to pass on, rather than be eaten by the darkness. Bidding Koyomi farewell, she kisses him and confesses her love for him before vanishing. Four months later, Koyomi tells the story of the incident to only one person—Ougi Oshino. On his way home, he realizes he never told Mayoi one thing he should have said—goodbye. 

第 5 話

化物語Season 82013年

第 1 話

On New Year’s Day, Kaiki receives a call from Hitagi requesting his services as a con man. After claiming that he is in Okinawa in an attempt to shake her off, Hitagi affirms that she will take a flight to meet him there, forcing him to do the same to keep his lie from being exposed and Hitagi from killing him. Once meeting at the airport, Hitagi explains her predicament with Nadeko: Hitagi wants Kaiki to trick Nadeko into abandoning her plans to kill Hitagi and Koyomi on their graduation day. With Oshino nowhere to be found despite Tsubasa’s attempts to track him down overseas, she has no other option than asking for his assistance. Despite seeing how Hitagi is desperate enough to resort to asking a man she loathes and that she is prepared to attend whatever demand he asks, Kaiki claims that he has no reason to help them at all. After considering the situation for some time, however, he acquiesces after considering their connection with Gaen’s niece Suruga. 

第 2 話

Kaiki decides to help Hitagi for a mere ¥100,000, much to her surprise. They leave Okinawa on separate flights to not arouse any suspicion. Posing as the father of one of Nadeko’s classmates, Kaiki infiltrates her home to search for any clues. Kaiki discovers several suspicious details, such as the fact that Nadeko had only photos of herself without any friends and that her parents, apparently not curious as to the cause of her disappearance, never opened Nadeko’s closet as she requested. Kaiki determines that she was a very spoiled child. After a brief phone conversation with Hitagi, Kaiki decides to visit the Polar Snake Shrine to learn more about Nadeko. Immediately upon Kaiki making a donation at the shrine, a mysteriously cheerful Nadeko appears. Apparently, Kaiki is her first visitor, despite Nadeko’s best efforts at renovating the shrine. Kaiki asks her several questions about her relationship with Koyomi, confirming her twisted conception of unrequited love and that she still means to kill Koyomi and Hitagi. Kaiki takes his leave after giving Nadeko some yarn for cat’s cradle to occupy her time, promising to return before she perfects any patterns. 

第 3 話

Returning from his visit at the Polar Snake Shrine, Kaiki asks Hitagi to meet him again, ending up in a Mister Donut restaurant. Kaiki claims that it will be easy for him to deceive Nadeko as at her current condition, she can’t doubt anyone – she has turned even more childish than she was in her human state, unable to detect any ill will. He reveals his plan to spare Koyomi and the others by lying to her that they died in an accident, thus he needs Hitagi to convince Koyomi to cease all connections with Nadeko. Hitagi, relieved and crying, thanks him for his services. On the following day, Kaiki is approached by Yotsugi who comes with an ultimatum from Gaen urging him to pull off his scheme to deceive Nadeko, claiming that the stake is too high and the entire city may be destroyed should he fail. Despite accepting ¥3,000,000 as compensation from Gaen, Kaiki moves on with his plan and pays another visit to Nadeko, claiming that he has a special wish she can fulfill and he will keep visiting her in a 100 visit cycle. Nadeko cheerfully tells him that she destroyed the cat’s cradle yarn and used a white snake instead. Terrified, he determines she is not only an idiot, but also insane. After the meetup, Kaiki tricks Nadeko’s parents to have them leave their house and he takes the opportunity to investigate her room, getting startled upon finding out what she kept hidden inside her closet. 

第 4 話

Kaiki returns to his hotelroom and finds an envelope with an anonymous message telling him to pull off. After tearing it up and flushing it in the toilet, he contacts Hitagi, telling her about the incident with Gaen and Yotsugi. He asks her if anyone else could profit from having him stop his plans to deceive Nadeko, however she has no idea who could have such goals. She asked if she could see the message, but Kaiki noted that he destroyed it already. Before hanging up, Hitagi warns him to beware of Nadeko. On the following day, Kaiki pays another visit to Nadeko just as promised, but this time he offers ¥20,000 and a bottle of sake instead of the usual ¥10,000, much to Nadeko’s joy. Returning from the temple, Kaiki is approached by Hanekawa who wants to talk to him. As they return to the city on a cab, Hanekawa reveals that she had just returned from her search for Oshino overseas without Hitagi’s and Araragi’s knowledge and even though she knew that continuing to look for him is futile, she intends to depart again on the following day. It turned out that Gaen personally warned Hanekawa to stay out of the intrigue. She invites Kaiki to her hotelroom. Kaiki, after making sure she is on their side, suggests her to exchange information with him. 

第5話

Kaiki learns from Tsubasa that strange phenomena have been happening in the town even before Shinobu arrived and because of that, Gaen was intending to have her become the new god of the Polar Shrine. However, because of Koyomi’s interference, her plans have failed and Nadeko turned into a god instead. Tsubasa believes that Nadeko actually does not care about anything or anybody at all, and most likely doesn’t really love “Big Brother Koyomi”, thus the reason for her behavior. She is also worried if Kaiki is able to pull off the scam. On the occasion, Tsubasa asks Kaiki if Oshino has any relatives like a niece and he affirms that just like him, Oshino does not have a family at all, including siblings or such, making the existence of Ougi Oshino very suspicious. Through the following days, Kaiki keeps visiting Nadeko to play with her and bring her presents until the day of Koyomi and Hitagi’s graduation finally arrives. After having a final conversation with Hitagi by phone, during which she demands him to never set foot in the city again once the job is done, Kaiki has a short meeting with Yotsugi on the way to the shrine. She repeats her warning and claims Kaiki won’t be able to deceive Nadeko. On the occasion, it is revealed that Kaiki used his wits to bring down a cult that was deceiving Hitagi’s mother but that ultimately led her to join another cult instead and for Hitagi’s sake, he had her mother divorce and leave her family. Upon meeting Nadeko at the shrine, Kaiki attempts to deceive her as planned by claiming that Koyomi, Hitagi and Shinobu were killed in a traffic accident in the previous night, however, she instantly recognizes the lie. 

第6話

Kaiki realizes that he failed to deceive Nadeko because she never trusted him at all, and because she was previously deceived by Ougi into claiming the charm and becoming a god. Nadeko unleashes a swarm of snakes onto the entire Polar Snake Shrine, immobilizing Kaiki. Believing that he was sent by Koyomi, she contemplates killing his sisters, Kanbaru, Hanekawa and Mayoi as well to punish him, until Kaiki reveals that he found out her secret aspiration to become a manga artist, as many drawings were hidden in her private closet. Embarrassed for having her secret revealed, Nadeko starts punching and kicking Kaiki as he tries to persuade her. He claims that eventually her parents will open the closet as well and find out about her secret, unless she renounces her godhood and returns home. After convincing her that she should forget about Koyomi entirely and pursue her true ambitions instead, she agrees to get deceived again. Kaiki implants a fake slug apparition into her body to have her uncounscious during the exorcism, but he’s interrupted by Koyomi rushing into the shrine. Claiming that he was sent by Gaen as a professional to deal with Nadeko, Kaiki extracts the snake charm from her body and returns it to him. Kaiki also instructs Koyomi to cut all connections with Nadeko for her sake, as she must move on with her life by herself – his relationship and romance with her would only make her a useless human being. After calling Hitagi and confirming that his job is done, Kaiki bids farewell to her and realizes that the secret message at his hotel was sent by no other than Hitagi herself, as she knew it would have him push further with his job instead of discouraging him, and Gaen’s message to him probably was for the same purpose. As he leaves the city, Kaiki is ambushed and mortally wounded by one of the middle schoolers he formerly deceived, with it being none other than the one who cursed Nadeko. Before he passes out, he hears Ougi’s name, implying that he was sent by her. As Kaiki is losing consciousness, the middle schooler attacks him once again. 

化物語Season 92014年

第 1 話

Set after the graduation of Koyomi Araragi and Hitagi Senjougahara, Suruga Kanbaru begins her third year in high school. She continues to deal with her left hand that had been turned monstrous through the use of her mother’s monkey paw charm. After hearing rumors from Ougi of a “Devil” that can solve one’s problems, Suruga sets out to find this person. She secretly fears that this person is her. However, she soon discovers that the “Devil” is her former basketball rival from junior high, Rouka Numachi. Rouka explains that she took on the role of the “Devil” after a leg injury ended her basketball career three years prior. She continues by saying that her work as the “Devil” is merely free counseling. Suruga counters by arguing that her clients are under the impression that the “Devil” is able to magically solve their problems. In essence, she’s lying to these people. Rouka explains that in assuring her clients that she will solve their problems, she frees them from worrying about them. The problems themselves are trivial, and get resolved on their own with time. She even says that if a person comes to her with a truly serious matter, she’ll refer them an appropriate institution, such as the police. Rouka explains that her position as the “Devil” allows her to be a collector of other people’s misfortunes, something she finds joy in. Suruga doesn’t agree with the dishonesty or her reasons, but she concedes that as long as Rouka isn’t hurting anyone, she won’t stop her. She is secretly relieved that she isn’t the “Devil”. Suruga awakes the next morning to find that her left arm has returned to normal. 

第 2 話

With her hand restored, Suruga attempts to adjust to this change, and how it impacts her daily life. She has many questions for the “Devil” who cured her, but she is informed by Ougi that the “Devil” has vanished, and is no longer giving counsel to others. Suruga attempts to locate the whereabouts of Rouka, but no one seems to know where she is or what she’s doing. In an attempt to find some answers, she boards a train to another town. When she arrives, she is met by none other than Deishu Kaiki. She attempts to flee, but Kaiki easily outruns her. Knowing when she’s beaten, Suruga agrees to accompany him. Kaiki takes her to a yakiniku restaurant, and explains his motivations. Kaiki was in love with Suruga’s mother during his college days. Fate kept them separated, and it was Suruga’s mother’s wish that if she were to die, Kaiki would look after Suruga. Suruga is skeptical of his ‘good will’ toward her because of her devotion to Kaiki’s nemesis, Hitagi. Kaiki reassures her that he will not deceive her. In the end, she accepts his offer. Kaiki then reveals that he knew about Suruga’s monkey paw, and that a person interested in collecting items like that would visit her soon. He implores her to let the collector have it, as the monkey paw is dangerous. Suruga then asks him how he knew she would be at the train station earlier. He says that Rouka told him. 

第 3 話

Suruga confronts Rouka, who confirms that she is the collector of devil parts. The two play a bit of one-on-one basketball. Contrary to her appearance as an injured cripple, Rouka is more than a match for Suruga. Rouka and Suruga then recount their stories. Suruga tells the story of the times she used the monkey’s paw, and how Koyomi and Hitagi helped her. Rouka, in turn, reveals that she not only has Suruga’s monkey paw, but a monkey’s leg as well. She explains that after her injury, a friend visiting her in the hospital confided in her about a personal issue. Hearing another person’s problems cheered Rouka up, and so she began collecting the misfortunes of others as the “Devil”. 

第 4 話

Rouka continues her explanation from the previous episode, recalling how she came to know Kaiki. As Kaiki is a con artist, and Rouka a collector, their methodologies are similar in how they attract their clients. They butted heads at one point, and resolved to simply pass information between them, and not interfere with the other. Finally she reveals why she came to collect devil parts. A person came to her with a problem, and like usual Rouka planned to listen. The girl revealed that she had a monkey leg, and her wish caused her to attack her own mother, similar to Suruga’s wish on her paw. For the first time, Rouka actually wanted to help someone, but as nothing more than a collector of misfortune, she was unable to do anything beyond embracing the girl and telling her it would be alright. Rouka then thinks to contact Kaiki, but discovers the next morning that she now had the monkey leg. It replaced her injured leg. This begins Rouka’s collection of devil parts, which she sees as opponents to her hobby as a collector of misfortune. With everything explained, Rouka leaves Suruga, expecting to not see her again. At home, Suruga is still adjusting to her arm being normal. She receives news from Karen Araragi on the current status of Rouka. Apparently Rouka committed suicide over three years prior, meaning the Rouka she had talked to was a ghost the whole time. To clear her head, Suruga decides to go for a run. She runs hard and collapses from exhaustion in the middle of the road. A car drives up to her, and as Suruga attempts to get out of the way, the driver reveals himself to be Koyomi. Koyomi elects to drive Suruga back into town. Along the way, Suruga vaguely confides in Koyomi, telling him of how in their own ways, Rouka, Kaiki, and even her own mother had told her to stay out of this issue, and that time would make things okay in the end. As a man of action, Koyomi rejects this, and encourages Suruga to face her problems if she wants them to be solved. Suruga, emboldened by Koyomi’s words, agrees. 

第 5 話

Upon returning home, Suruga finds a package left to her by Kaiki. It is a mummified monkey’s head. Now armed with the proper leverage and conviction, Suruga calls out Rouka for a basketball rematch. Using the head as bait, Suruga challenges Rouka for control of the devil parts. When asked for a reason, initially Suruga says that she fears what Rouka would become if she were to gather all the devil parts, but she later admits that it is because she despises Rouka. Rouka warns her that because the stakes are so high, she’ll make full use of her devil parts, including her hand and leg, giving her an advantage. Suruga proposes that they play only a single round, with the two of them utilizing their strongest areas of play. Suruga is an offensive powerhouse, and Rouka is a defensive specialist. If Suruga is able to make a basket, she wins. If not, Rouka wins. After a bit of probing, Rouka reveals that she has no idea that she committed suicide, and is now a ghost, shocking Suruga. Suruga realizes that she’s also going to be fighting to make Rouka realize that she’s dead. And in doing so she’ll confirm that she and Rouka are in fact, different people. Suruga begins her match with Rouka. From the start, she realizes that she won’t be able to get around Rouka’s defense. But in a moment of quick thinking, Suruga passes the ball to Rouka. As Rouka tenses up in shock over the unexpected move, Suruga swiftly steals the ball from Rouka’s hands and gets around her. Suruga goes for a dunk, but Rouka challenges her at the top of her jump. The dunk goes in. In the aftermath, the two share a laugh over the match. Rouka reveals that due to her play style and her personality, her teammates never passed her the ball very often, which is why it surprised her when her opponent did it. Basking in defeat, Rouka encourages Suruga to go back to playing basketball, or at least do something with her talents instead of just watching from the sidelines. As Suruga is about to respond, she looks down to find that Rouka has disappeared, gone to the afterlife. In her place she left behind all of the devil parts that she had collected. Suruga gathers the parts, and finally admits that the whole time she had been jealous of Rouka. The next day Suruga awakes to find Koyomi, who is there to help her clean her room. She asks Koyomi to have Shinobu dispose of the mummified monkey parts. The two discuss the previous day’s events, and talk more on what it means for her as a person. Finally, Koyomi gives Suruga a haircut, one that is more suited for playing sports.

化物語2009年

第1話

The arc opens with Koyomi Araragi and Shinobu Oshino musing about the true nature of Shikigami doll Yotsugi Ononoki. Koyomi supposes that as an apparition, Yotsugi isn’t well suited to life among humans, in spite of her attempts at being human-like. She was, after all, created from a human corpse, by other humans. Shinobu disputes this, saying that the human parts of Yotsugi’s nature are because she needs to interact with humans, rather than a desire of hers to become human. Koyomi goes on to consider the nature of apparitions in general, concluding that apparitions are the way they are because people believe them to be so. Koyomi’s monologue concludes by foreshadowing that this arc is the beginning of the end of the series. The story begins with Koyomi being woken up by his sisters, Karen and Tsukihi Araragi. Koyomi realizes that the next day is Valentine’s Day, but Karen exclaims that he doesn’t have the time to worry about that, as his college entrance exams are coming up soon. Karen leaves to go on a run, instructing Koyomi to prepare a bath for her. After Karen leaves, Koyomi and Tsukihi discuss why Karen hasn’t joined any athletic teams. Koyomi states that Karen is a talented individual, and that by committing herself to just karate, and her half of the Fire Sisters, she is letting her talent go to waste. While Tsukihi is annoyed that Koyomi would suggest breaking up the duo, she admits that she realizes that Karen will leave on her own, to do her own thing. Koyomi recognizes the need for his sisters to wake up and be more mature about how they conduct themselves. After preparing the bath for Karen, Koyomi decides to use it for himself. He is caught by Tsukihi, who also plans on using the bath. The two briefly argue over who should get to go first, before compromising. The two bathe together. Tsukihi mentions that Nadeko Sengoku was recently released from the hospital after her ordeal as a snake god. Koyomi responds neutrally. While he is happy that Nadeko turned out okay, he knows that it’s for the best if he stays out of her life. Moreover, Koyomi realizes that without a god, the shrine area will continue to accumulate dark spiritual energy, which in turn will cause more apparition problems for his town. He resolves to do his best to put things in balance before leaving for college. Tsukihi is concerned with how much pressure and responsibility Koyomi holds for himself, telling him that he shouldn’t worry so much. Koyomi then realizes that his own reflection isn’t showing up in the bathroom mirror. As if he had become a real vampire. 

第2話

Koyomi narrowly avoids letting Tsukihi see that he has no reflection. The pair are then caught by Karen, who proceeds to beat them up. Later, Koyomi explains his discovery to Shinobu. Shinobu concludes that Koyomi has indeed turned into a vampire. Koyomi protests, pointing out an injury to his toe that had been inflicted by Tsukihi earlier. It hadn’t healed, which it should have if he were a true vampire. Shinobu corrects him, saying that while it hadn’t healed much on the surface, the toe actually had been broken, and it was the bone that had been healing. Shinobu suggests that Koyomi see a specialist, Yozuru Kagenui. Koyomi agrees, but doesn’t know how to contact her, or Yotsugi. Shinobu then suggests contacting Kaiki, and using him to get through to Yozuru, but Koyomi refuses on account of his past grievances with Kaiki. Shinobu finally suggests Izuko Gaen. Both she and Koyomi have reservations about getting involved with her, but they agree that their options are limited. As Koyomi picks up his phone to contact Izuko, he sees that she has already messaged him. She tells him to go to an arcade at a certain time that night. Tsukihi then storms into Koyomi’s room and berates him for leaving her to deal with Karen by herself. She demands that he apologize. Koyomi instead instructs Tsukihi to convince Karen that the two of them should sleep over at Suruga Kanbaru’s house that night. He reasons that if he’s going to be involved with Yozuru and Yotsugi, Tsukihi might be in danger, as she is still an immortal phoenix. Tsukihi reluctantly agrees. That night, Koyomi and Shinobu go to the arcade, where they find Yotsugi as a motionless doll inside of a claw machine. She is unresponsive, resulting in Koyomi having to play the game in order to get her out. It takes him twelve tries. After claiming Yotsugi, Yozuru appears, and the group discusses Koyomi’s situation at the ruins of the abandoned cram school. Yozuru examines Koyomi’s toe, and shows him that it is completely healed. Koyomi is surprised, as it healed much faster than it had been earlier. Yotsugi points out what time it is, and Koyomi remembers that a vampire’s powers are stronger at night. She also mentions that vampires are healed by moonlight. As Yotsugi analyzes Koyomi’s foot, Yozuru runs another test on Koyomi, breaking two of his fingers. Koyomi is stunned, but Yozuru explains that vampires are able to consciously heal their injuries if they concentrate on them. Through some effort, Koyomi heals his fingers. With the tests done and analysis complete, Yozuru and Yotsugi reveal their results. Yotsugi explains that currently, Koyomi is slowly turning into a vampire. Koyomi is unfazed, stating that due to his encounters with other apparitions, he has turned into a vampire many times before, albeit on a temporary basis. Yotsugi then explains that it is because he turned into a vampire so much that he is now becoming a vampire. Or rather, he became accustomed to being a vampire, which is why his soul is starting to lean in that direction. Yozuru says that while this sort of thing isn’t unheard of, Meme Oshino couldn’t have predicted it was going to happen. Yotsugi goes on to explain that an aggravating factor was the incident with Sengoku and the snake god. During the intervening time when Sengoku was lording over the shrine, Koyomi used his powers as a vampire every day in an effort to save her. Koyomi accepts the situation, and asks for what he should to do to undo the progress of his transformation. Yotsugi replies that there is no way to fix it. 

第3話

As Yotsugi’s words sink in, Koyomi remains unfazed. He reasons that his experiences as a vampire must have come with a price. One that he should have to pay. Yozuru commends Koyomi for his acceptance, but tells him that while there is no way to undo the progress of his transformation, there is a way he can stop it from progressing further: he must no longer use his powers as a vampire. Yotsugi informs Koyomi that he can still use his blood to feed Shinobu, but he shouldn’t do it too often, and not to the point where he gains any powers. Yozuru warns him that if he were to progress further toward being a vampire, she would have to kill him, as is her duty as a specialist. This raises Shinobu’s ire, and she tells Yozuru that if Koyomi were to die, the restraints on her would be released, returning her to her status as lord of the vampires. She would use that power to kill Yozuru. Yozuru accepts the challenge. Yotsugi, not wanting to see the others fight, urges Koyomi to never use his powers again, in order to keep things the way they are. Reluctantly, Koyomi promises to stop using his powers. Internally, however, he has doubts as to whether or not he can. He knows that if someone he cares about were going to die he wouldn’t hesitate to use his powers to save them. Later, as Koyomi and Yozuru are discussing the reasoning behind her focus on killing immortal apparations, Yozuru receives a call from Izuko. Yozuru tells Koyomi and Yotsugi to go to Suruga’s house immediately, to check on his sisters. They arrive to find not only Koyomi’s sisters, but also Suruga missing. In their place is a series of paper cranes. Yotsugi explains that the bird shape indicates that the kidnapper is after Tsukihi, the phoenix. They meet back up with Yozuru, who explains that the man behind the kidnapping is Teori Tadatsuru, an apparation specialist and doll master. Like Yozuru, Teori is a specialist who focuses on killing immortal apparitions. Yozuru warns Koyomi that he can’t use his powers as a vampire to solve this, nor can Shinobu. Koyomi remarks on the costs of his vampire power usage, likening it to divine punishment. Yotsugi and Yozuru disagree, stating that the kidnapping happening the day Koyomi finds out he transformed into vampire is much too coincidental. Koyomi and Yozuru then discuss possibilities for Teori’s motivations, and who he is as a specialist. Yozuru says that Teori doesn’t hold much in the way of convictions, only that he finds apparitions to be beautiful. Teori himself is an artist, and as a specialist he goes around like Meme, mediating between apparitions and humans. Yozuru then reveals that Teori’s true targets are Koyomi and Shinobu, and as Teori operates outside of Izuko’s network of specialists, Meme’s assertion that Koyomi and Shinobu are harmless means nothing to Teori. The group then looks through the paper cranes, and finds one with Teori’s location: the North Shirahebi Shrine. Yotsugi and Koyomi prepare to jump to a location near the mountain where the shrine is. Yozuru will proceed to the shrine on her own, but she tells Koyomi to do things when he feels it’s right, and not to wait for her. 

第4話

Koyomi and Yotsugi land at the base of the mountain, where they are surprisingly met by Ougi Oshino. She talks with Koyomi for a while about his current situation and his upcoming confrontation with Teori. Koyomi and Yotsugi begin their journey up the mountain. The two discuss how they will be able to rescue Koyomi’s sisters and Suruga. Koyomi hopes that they’ll be able to sneak past Teori and get them without him noticing, but Yotsugi is doubtful of that plan. She expects that Koyomi will have to convince Teori to let them go, as this is how Koyomi normally deals with his opponents. Yotsugi then briefly explains how she was created. Back during their college days, Yozuru, Teori, Meme, and Deishu Kaiki did a project to create an artificial shikigami from the corpse of a human, under the direction of Izuko. Yozuru and Teori both fought for ‘ownership’ of Yotsugi, but in the end, Yotsugi chose to stay with Yozuru. This led to a falling out between Yozuru and Teori. Yotsugi discloses that the reason she is telling Koyomi this is because, if things were dire, he could choose to hand over Yotsugi to Teori in order to resolve the situation. Koyomi refuses to consider the option. He instead instructs Yotsugi to find the hostages, and use her power to immediately get away, while he distracts Teori. Yotsugi points out that if she were to leave, Koyomi and Shinobu would be left helpless before Teori. Yotsugi halfheartedly suggests offering Shinobu to Teori, which Koyomi refuses. Yotsugi points out that Koyomi’s desire to have the hostages rescued while not being willing to give up either Yotsugi, Shinobu, or himself shows a lack of maturity. She then suggests that if she were to get close enough to Teori, she could use her powers to kill him before he has a chance to react. Koyomi is shocked at the suggestion. He wants to preserve what humanity is left in Yotsugi, and if she were to kill Teori, she would lose it. The two reach the shrine, and observe Teori. He is sitting on the offertory box, folding origami. Koyomi realizes that he is counting time with that: once the box is full of origami, time is up. Koyomi decides to use his simple decoy plan, and Yotsugi leaves to sneak in through the rear of the shrine. As Koyomi is preparing to confront Teori, Shinobu appears from his shadow. She tells him that she doesn’t care if he is no longer human, so if Koyomi is about to die, she’ll turn him into a full vampire. Koyomi then confronts Teori. Teori reveals that both he and Yozuru have a curse upon them that prevents them from walking on the ground. He then says that his reason for kidnapping those close to Koyomi was so that he could kill Koyomi. However, Teori is perplexed at the situation. He knows that he is there to kill Koyomi, but why him? On paper it seems like Teori is the best person to oppose Koyomi, almost as if he were cast for the role. He can’t help but feel that someone else has manipulated events so that it would turn out to be him fighting Koyomi. While this conversation is taking place, Yotsugi is shown searching the shrine for the hostages. Koyomi is angered by Teori’s musings on the situation, but Teori points out that Koyomi’s anger merely fits the role that he had been cast. The two of them are following their scripts. He tells Koyomi to find Meme, as he is the one who could bring balance outside of the casting or script. Koyomi replies that he has searched, and asks Teori if he knows where Meme is. Teori replies that he does not. Teori drops a final origami into the offertory box, and it fills up. Teori gets ready to fight Koyomi, stating that he’s sick of being manipulated and used like a pawn. Teori then appears to be talking to someone other than Koyomi. It is revealed to be Yotsugi, who appears in front of Teori. Yotsugi uses her powers and kills Teori. Koyomi is shocked. Yotsugi reassures him that he had nothing to do with her decision. Even if there were a way to save everyone, she decided to do it because she is a monster, in her own words. She tells Koyomi to not end up like her. Karen, Tsukihi, and Suruga are found in the offertory box, and are taken back to Suruga’s house. Taking an external view of things, Koyomi realizes that the point of this incident was to create a rift between him and Yotsugi. He was disgusted by her actions. Later, Koyomi visits Hitagi Senjougahara’s house, who surprises him with chocolates. He remembers that today is Valentine’s Day. Koyomi and Hitagi discuss the previous day’s events and what they mean for his future. Hitagi surmises that things are fine for now, and that worrying too much about the future isn’t all that great. He should just focus on living his life. After returning home, Koyomi enters his sister’s room and finds Yotsugi sitting on Tsukihi’s bed. Yotsugi explains that she was won by Tsukihi in the same claw game that Koyomi played the previous night, though Tsukihi needed only three attempts to get her. She goes on to say that both Yozuru and Izuko realized that the point of the previous day’s incident was to create a rift in between Koyomi and Yotsugi, and as such, they should oppose whatever party that is causing these incidents. Therefore, until balance is achieved in the town, Yotsugi will be living in the Araragi household, which will serve to help Koyomi and Yotsugi reconcile.

第1話

Koyomi and Ougi find themselves trapped in a classroom, and the story shifts back to the point when Suruga introduces Ougi to Koyomi. Ougi approaches him with a mystery about a room not seen in the school’s blueprints for them to investigate. When they enter the room, they find themselves trapped inside, leading them to their current situation. While talking about their predicament, the duo realize that the room is an oddity created by a traumatic memory from Koyomi’s freshman years. Koyomi then tells Ougi that two years prior, the class president at his and Hitagi’s class at the time, Sodachi Oikura, was looking for possible culprits of cheating on a math test, and would not allow any student to leave class until a culprit was found. Ougi surmises that they themselves won’t be able to leave the room until the two-year-old mystery is solved. 

第2話

Koyomi explains that during that debate two years earlier, tension among the students increased until Sodachi proposed a voting to elect the culprit, and while she voted for Koyomi out of her hatred on him, much to her surprise, she herself was chosen by most of the rest of the class. Since then, she stopped coming to school, just appearing to taking the tests while studying at home, while Koyomi stopped trusting people at all, leading to his reclusive life at school until he met Tsubasa, Hitagi and the other girls. Ougi, based on the information she obtained from Koyomi, figures that the true culprit was their math teacher at the time, Tetsujo Komichi, who arranged for her students to glimpse the contents of her test in advance in order to improve their grades and her reputation as a teacher as well, and Koyomi remembers that Tetsujo was one among those who voted Sodachi as the culprit. Now able to leave the room, Koyomi wonders if he was led there by Ougi by purpose, but she denies it. The next day, Koyomi gets himself relieved upon knowing that Tetsujo is on maternity leave and he won’t see her again until he graduates. He also looks for the room where he and Ougi were trapped just to find that it is not there anymore, as a sign that the oddity disappeared for good. Just when Koyomi returns to his classroom, Tsubasa appears to stop him from entering, because Sodachi unexpectedly returned to attend classes during Tetsujo’s leave, much to his surprise. 

第3話

Koyomi arrives at his former middle school, accompanied by Ougi, looking for clues regarding Sodachi’s hatred towards him. While investigating his former shoe locker, the pair find three letters, and the story then shifts back to the moment when Koyomi is informed by Tsubasa that Sodachi had returned to the school. In the occasion, Tsubasa reveals that Sodachi had made her all sort of questions regarding him and she answered her the best she could. While Tsubasa leaves to inform the homeroom teacher about Sodachi, Koyomi decides to face her directly. In the occasion, Sodachi continuously insults him, claiming that she not only despises him, but that she does so because he has a happy life and does not know the reason why. When Koyomi attempts to calm her down, she hurts him with a mechanic pencil, just when Hitagi enters the room. Fearing for the worse, Tsubasa attempts to hold Hitagi back to no avail but claims that she will not attack Sodachi for injuring her boyfriend. However, Sodachi starts insulting her as well, and after being slapped in the face, Hitagi knocks her down with a punch, before pretending to lose consciousness as well and leaving the situation for Koyomi to resolve. Upon confiding to Ougi about the situation, they conclude that the key to the mystery lies in the middle school where both Koyomi and Sodachi used to study, and because of that they decided to stop there to investigate. Back to the present, the pair find in the letters a map leading to an abandoned house. While exploring the house, Ougi points out that Sodachi must be aware that Tetsujo is the true culprit behind the incident in the classroom two years before, as she decided to return to school just when she left on maternity leave. Despite wary of Ougi’s true intentions, Koyomi guides her to the house’s attic, where he is about to tell the story of what happened there five years prior. 

第4話

Koyomi tells Ougi that five years before, he was in trouble with his grades at school, specially in mathematics, when he finds three letters in his shoe locker and upon solving the mystery that lies on them, he is drawn to the ruins where he met a girl of his age who agreed to help him with his studies, upon agreeing at three conditions: that he would never ask, or try to figure out her name; that they would only study in the ruins’s attic; and that they will only talk about mathematics. Agreeing with her demands, Koyomi studied with the girl for some time, until one day she disappeared without a trace, only leaving behind an empty envelope for him. Certain that the girl from that time could be no other than Sodachi, and by the signs of domestic violence she glimpsed in the house, Ougi realizes that by that time, the house was not in ruins, but was actually the house where Sodachi used to live, and she had actually lured Koyomi there by purpose, knowing that his parents are from the police, hoping that upon realizing that something was wrong with her own parents’ behavior, he would tell them, but he did not realize that at the time, which was the reason for the empty envelope she left for him as a sign that he did not help her when she needed him most. In the next day, Koyomi returns to school, knowing that he must face Sodachi once more, but he can’t shake the feeling that the reason for her hatred towards him runs deeper then that.

Araragi, Kanbaru and Shinobu fight with the mysterious appartition, which seems like a hybrid of all the oddities Araragi had dealt with in the past. Upon defeating the appartition, the gang meet up with Izuko Gaen, who introduces herself as the sister of Meme Oshino, Izuko Oshino. She tells them that the task she asked Araragi to do was, in fact, related to the enemies they had encountered so far and the main objective was the samurai armor, who she tells them is actually the first minion of Shinobu mentioned in Onimonogatari. She tells them of the tale of the first minion, the original appartition killer, what became of him, and how he came to this town… 15 years ago.

While inspecting the donuts, Shinobu notices that they are not “Mr. Donut” brand and states that Koyomi’s girlfriend likely poisoned them. After a short argument, Shinobu eats the first donut, stating that it was delicious and insists that she thank Hitagi directly. Koyomi suggests not to, as it would be awkward for Shinobu to introduce herself on such an odd note. Soon after, Koyomi attempts to grab a donut from the four remaining, but Shinobu recoils and states the other ones might be poisoned as well. Koyomi asserts that she’s exploiting the situation in order to the eat the rest of the donuts, and they eventually come to a compromise, Shinobu will hide each donut around his room, and every one Koyomi doesn’t find will be hers to eat. After a cut, the scene transitions to a conversation over the phone between Koyomi and Tsubasa, who is currently overseas scouting out locations for her trip around the world. Koyomi tells Tsubasa that during the game, he was able to find three of the four donuts, but was puzzled on where the last one could have been hidden. Tsubasa presents the idea that Shinobu hid one of the smaller donuts within a larger one, meaning Koyomi would have eaten the evidence of the remaining donut. Koyomi then asks why Shinobu would do such a thing, as it would go against her intentions of consuming the rest of the donuts. Tsubasa responds, saying that it was Shinobu overlooking her selfish motives and chance of personal gain in order to teach Koyomi, not about secrecy or negotiations, but love.

February. Late February. Araragi is seen fighting with Yozuru in order to become stronger without the use of his vampire powers as she does. Yozuru tells Araragi that he will die before he becomes able to learn her technique. Araragi then poses the question about Yozuru and Yotsugi seeing as how Yotsugi only calls Yozuru “Onee-san” but is unlike all the males she knows, whom she each calls “Onii-san” after their names. Yozuru then tells Araragi that she’ll tell him about their relationship only if he lands a single blow against her in battle. Araragi accepts and goes home. Later, Araragi asks his sister Karen for advice. Karen points out how Araragi should have not accepted the fight at all seeing as how it will be impossible to even land a single blow. She also points out that the extremely hard difficulty only proves how Yozuru does not want to tell Araragi the truth, only indirectly rejecting to answer the question. Karen finishes by saying how she would try to not disgrace her opponent by losing the battle without letting the opponent know that she knows about not being answered at all. Thus Araragi prepares to lose gracefully by getting Shinobu to make him a gun using her vampire power of creation and in turn landing a single “blow” even if it is not a punch. The next day, Araragi goes to the mountain where Yozuru should be waiting for him but she never appears.
